What to bring to a first visit

  • Photo ID and every insurance card (health, auto claim number or workers' comp claim number).
  • Imaging reports and discs (MRI, CT, X-ray) and any prior injection notes.
  • A list of medicines with doses, including anything you take for sleep or mood.
  • A short pain diary: where it hurts, what makes it worse, and how it affects work and sleep.

Choosing a pain doctor in Santa Monica

  • Check the license with the Medical Board of California. Physicians can also be looked up on DocInfo.org.
  • Ask whether the doctor is board certified in pain medicine (through anesthesiology, PM&R or neurology).
  • Ask which procedures are done in the office and which at a surgery center, and who reads your imaging.
  • Bring a list of medicines, prior imaging (MRI, X-ray) and the dates your pain started or changed.
  • In California, prescribers check the CURES database before prescribing controlled pain medicines, so tell the doctor about every prescription you take.
